Crystal Palace vs. Bristol City preview

There are only 3 fixtures world wide today, and the most important one is Crystal Palace vs. Bristol City.  Today is the second leg of the first found of the championship playoffs, and Neil Warnock and Crystal Palace need a favorable day at Ashton Gate, to move on to Wembley.  Palace are down 2-1 on aggregate and the robins were able to score 2 all important away goals at Selhurst Park.  Warnock's boys will have to get out and attack to have any chance of moving on, and that could possibly make them vulnerable to Bristol City's counter attacks.  If Palace can nick an early goal, it puts all the pressure on Bristol City.  One mistake from them after that and it's another year in the Championship.  Realistically, Bristol City have come to far to just lay down and die for Palace and I am predicting a 1-1 draw and Bristol City going to Wembley later on this Month.  What do you guys think about this?  I do hope Palace win, because the more I see Neil Warnock the better but Bristol City should be able to pull this one out.
